The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

155. Can’t Let Them Go

Translator: Ning LL

The force was so strong that it startled every expert in the whole Skyline City.

However, before they could check what had happened, there was a huge explosive sound. As everyone ran out to have a look, they found one room of the Emerald Dragon Hotel had already been blown to pieces. The walls, the tiles and the roof were all smashed and even the buildings around were affected.

Emerald Dragon Hotel was situated in the most bustling place in Skyline City, so lots of people came out to watch the fun and peeked around curiously. They had heard of what had happened in the daytime, so after they had thought carefully, they didn’t feel very surprised. They assumed that someone that was unwilling to give up the lode might come back to make trouble, but they just didn’t realize that the action would be so drastic.

“What’s wrong?”

Luo Nanshu ran out of the hotel in a hurry. Then he saw Carendra standing outside while staring at the place above the hotel with a cold look. As Luo Nanshu looked up, he saw a black shadow standing in the air and giving out threatening aura all over. Due to the distance, Luo Nanshu couldn’t see that person’s face clearly. However, according to that aura, that should be an expert of the Lesser Heaven God realm.

“I don’t know.” Carendra answered directly. He saw the shadow just now too.

“I think I have a name in my head.” Huan Ye and Zong Wuqing walked out from the crowd after seeing Luo Nanshu and Carendra coming out.

“Who is he?”

Luo Nanshu assumed that the person was coming for the King. Right now, except for people from the Dino family, no one had such a deep hatred against the King and would launch an attack directly without saying anything. Also, the Dino family lived not far from Emerald Dragon Mountains. If people from that family came here to take revenge on the King, now was the best time. However, Luo Nanshu was unfamiliar with the members of the Dino family, so he couldn’t guess the identity of the black shadow.

The Heaven Fantasy family where Huan Ye was from was a competitor of the Dino family, so he knew the things about the Dino family better than anyone else.

“If what I think is correct, he should be Qingming, brother of the leader of the Dino family. He’s a self-conceited and insolent man who rose up a thousand years ago. Unlike the leader of the Dino family, Qingming has no interest in his family property and has devoted himself in refining magical objects. The Dino family couldn’t have made such an achievement without him. Thus his position is actually higher than the leader of the family. However, though he is keen on refining magical objects, he adores his brother’s son, Yaozong Dino a lot, who was killed by Carendra. So, he must have come here to revenge his nephew.”

“I heard that Qingming Dino is not only an expert of the Heaven God realm, but also a Godfire refiner of the eighth grade.” Hearing Huan Ye’s introduction, Luo Nanshu also remembered something about that person.

“That’s right, but that happened twenty years ago. Now even my family doesn’t know if his refining level has raised up. If it has, it would be a bad thing to the Gunilla Chamber of Commerce.” Huan Ye nodded.

Zong Wuqing said smilingly, “It is unlikely for him to come here alone to revenge out of impulse.”

“No matter whether he came here out of impulse or confidence, the result of him is the same.” Carendra scrubbed his blade with his murderous intention getting stronger.

“True.” Zong Wuqing and the other men looked at each other with a smile.

“Ah, damn… I was nearly flattened. Who’s so crazy? Why did they choose to come at the time when we were asleep?”

After those men finished their conversation, God of Books and God of Bad Luck ran out from the hotel which had already turned into ruins with dust all over their bodies and complaining looks on their faces. Seeing Carendra and the other men already standing there, the two Gods ran over with beaming faces hurriedly. Then they started to ask questions.

“Open your eyes and you’ll see.” Carendra interrupted their nonsenses at once.

God of Books knew about Carendra’s temper, so he only stroked his nose and didn’t ask anything. Then he raised his head and found a figure standing in the air. Moreover, he still hadn’t seen the King and Feng Xi. Right as the two Gods were about to ask again, a gruff and rumbling voice sounded in the sky.

“Don’t hide like a coward. I know that you aren’t dead. Show yourself!” Qingming said that with an icy face while looking around with his sharp eyes. Unfortunately, the King was nowhere to be found and he showed a glum face.

“Gosh…” There was a sudden sigh in the dark sky.

Qingming opened his eyes wide at once with a cruel look. However, he still couldn’t find where the King and Feng Xi were.

“In fact… we have been standing behind you for a long time. Haven’t you noticed that? Oh, sorry, I forgot. You don’t have eyes on the back of your head.” The voice sounded again, giving a light but horrifying feeling to others.

Qingming, startled, attacked backwards without turning back. In the meantime, he slid forward for about ten feet. However, as he turned around, he found no one was attacked and the force only disappeared at a place far away. The look on his face turned sullen at once. Then the boy’s airy voice came through again.

“A gentleman uses his tongue, not his fists. We can discuss this. Getting mad will give you wrinkles.”

“Come out! Come the hell out!” Qingming could no longer tolerate the helpless and scared feeling with only darkness around him. His enemies were near him, but he just couldn’t feel where they were, which made him more and more anxious. He hadn’t had this kind of feeling for a long long while.

“All right, since you invited us so earnestly, we’ll show up then. Don’t get frightened, cause we look very scary… Actually, we are right behind you now!”

As Qingming turned around, a fist with white fire already hit on his face. The huge strike blew him away straightly.

Qingming’a face was covered with shock. Though he reacted a bit slowly, he still shouldn’t be attacked because he had a defense weapon with him. He was a refiner and it was not hard for him to make a defense armor. However, his enemy had broken his defense with one punch. Also, he seemed to have heard a boy’s voice, and he couldn’t believe a boy had destroyed his defense armor.

Qingming was thrown to the ruins of the hotel like a shooting star and blasted out a crater on the ground.

After Qingming walked out of the ruins in a mess, he stared at the two figures in the sky with a malicious look in his eyes. With his stern face turning totally twisted, he roared as if he was venting out his anger, “All the experts in Skyline City, on behalf of the Dino family, I’ll present two middle-level profound weapons of the highest quality to anyone who could kill them.”

“Puff, Qingming, you are just a refiner of the eighth grade, how can you refine a middle-level profound weapon of the highest quality? Unless you’ve become a refiner of the ninth or tenth grade.”

After a short period of silence, an old and gloomy voice sounded.

Since someone had already given the response, the others also echoed with him one after another. A middle-level profound weapon of the highest quality was such a great temptation to them. Because of the message about the lode of the highest quality, Skyline City was now full of powerful cultivators. A lot of experts had come here these days, among whom there were even cultivators of the Heaven God realm. Qingming had only claimed that loudly because he had known about that.

“I already became a refiner of the ninth-grade half a year ago.” Qingming declared that proudly. He had always taken pride in his achievement in reaching the ninth grade, because it meant that the Dino family had already been able to challenge Gunilla Chamber of Commerce.

“I can’t believe you truly have reached the next grade.” A few men’s excited voices came through again.

“I only need you guys to help me kill these two people. Now that everyone is watching, I won’t risk ruining the reputation of my family.” Qingming was afraid that they wouldn’t agree with him, so he mentioned his family reputation again. Anyone with a brain knew that the most important thing for a big family was its reputation. Having a damaged prestige would hurt a family a lot.

“Fine, we agree with you.” Some experts in Skyline City hesitated for a while and finally couldn’t resist the temptation of the middle-level profound weapon of the highest quality.”

Hardly had their voices faded when about ten experts launched attacks in all the directions of Skyline City. Then they turned into beams of light and flew to Qingming. In no time, they besieged the King and Feng Xi on purpose.

In the crowd, Luo Nanshu and the other guys showed obvious shocked looks on their faces, but the person they felt surprised about was Feng Xi. Carendra who knew the boy well was the most surprised one. According to Feng Xi’s cultivation level, he shouldn’t be able to blow away an expert in the Heaven God realm.

Carendra couldn’t help but clench his fists. He didn’t want to fall behind.

“My leader, that old man is looking for helpers now.” Feng Xi screamed weirdly, but his voice sounded very excited.

“Xi, do you want a helper too?” The King glanced around with an indifferent look. He was well aware how many experts there were in Skyline City. Only less than half of them had come since there were only a dozen cultivators surrounding him. It seemed like many leaders were still clear-minded.

“No, I can’t give two profound weapons of the highest grade to them.” Feng Xi shook his head. If he had two profound weapons of the highest grade, he would definitely hide them. How could he give them to others?

“Xi, how would you like to deal with these people?” The King whispered to Feng Xi’s ear with his head lowered and still held Feng Xi in his arms.

As he spoke of that, Feng Xi gnashed his teeth in anger and wanted to give a few punches again.

“How dare they disturb me while I was cooking? We can’t let them go.”
